Trip Home Part 1


We were fortunate to come home during summer break, it was nice to be home during the summer rather than winter this time.  I had such a great time just being home.  Loved seeing family.  Jada had a great time with her cousins, Mayew (Matthew-my brother), Grandma and Grandpa.  

Shortly before taking our trip,
she wanted to wear her pool pass bracelets on her ankles.  Funny 
On the plane, boy does she love planes
getting ready for family pictures
getting her pose on with her bear
snapshot of her and I.  More to come later.
Matthew and Jada chillin' on the way home.
Dane ran his first race!  He did the 5K freedom run with my sister Birgitta.
He was so glad she ran with him.  He had such a blast doing it and wants to run more races now 
at the Provo parade, started out cool and then came the sun...Yowza!
We decided to go watch the Beach Boys at the Stadium of Fire
My sister Birgitta and Jeremy joined us!
It was a great time 
wow, why did we wear the same shirt? :)

went swimming a few times at my childhood pool.
Jada wanted nothing to do but go down the adult water slides over and over again. 
I should have taken more pictures, here we are playing at the park for my Mom's birthday party.


                                             

Dane, Matthew and I escaped for a little bit to hang out at the Riverwoods.  Dane wanted to explore the ropes course.  He was the only person over the age of 10.  Haha, but he had a great time!


Jada found a great place for her grapes. :)
Made me laugh.

No Fish

Well we decided to buy us a fishin' pole and get a license to fish here in Wisconsin.  There are many beautiful lakes and rivers to fish in so it just sounded like fun!  I haven't fished since my Dad took us when I was a wee child.  I loved it then, and I am sure I will like it now.  We went to Harrington State Park and fished in one of the lakes there.  After Jada got impatient of waiting and waiting, I finally let Dane be with his buddy and took Jada to the beach in the same park.  
I had so much fun learning how to fish again although Dane kept getting annoyed on my casting skills.  I had fun though...didn't care I wasn't that great at it.  We left home with no fish caught, better luck next time!


Jada and her new best friend Chloe

just having a blast tossing rocks




trying to bury Chloe's legs

trying to bury her own legs 


there was no stopping her, I couldn't keep her out of the water
even though it was freezing! 
next time I will be prepared with bathing suits!
We got soaked in the end
